Description[]

A Pack Divided[]

The life of a pack is full of danger-- but the greatest danger of all is the one that hides within.
Storm has spent her whole life fighting for survival and acceptance. Now she finally feels at home in the Wild Pack, and for the first time she can remember, the world beyond their camp is at peace.
Even after the Storm of Dogs, Storm is still not fully trusted by her pack-mates. With Whisper following her around, and pestering her, will she be able to keep her cool and not rip out Whisper’s throat or the others?
Within the Pack, tensions are rising. Some dogs are far from satisfied with the Pack order, and others still don't trust Storm and Arrow, the only two Fierce Dogs within their ranks. Worse, Storm fears her Pack-mates might be right. Troubled by dreams of fear and shadows, Storm isn't sure which is the greater threat—the darkness spreading within the Pack... or the darkness within herself.

Dead of Night[]

In a Pack, loyalty is everything—but some dogs should never be trusted.
Storm has been troubled by terrifying dreams of fear and darkness that guide her paws while she sleeps. Now a new darkness has struck at the heart of the Wild Pack. Whisper is dead—and Storm is certain that his wounds could only have been done by another dog. Lucky and her pack mates are reluctant to believe her, but Storm is determined to face the truth: Could there be a traitor in their midst?

Into the Shadows[]

United, a Pack can face any threat. Divided, they will fall.
There is a traitor in the midst of the Wild Pack, and tensions—and suspicions—keep rising. Storm is determined to protect her Pack…but if they don’t find the traitor soon, there may be nothing left for her to protect.

Red Moon Rising[]

When no dog can be trusted, no dog is safe.
After rescuing Alpha and Beta’s pups from drowning in the Endless Lake, Storm is a hero to her Packmates. But danger still walks among them—and it won’t be long before the traitor dog strikes again. The Pack must find a way to stand together against the most malicious and elusive enemy they have ever known... Before terror and doubt tear them apart forever.

The Exile's Journey[]

Storm is in exile. After dealing with the mistrust and suspicion of her Packmates, who think she has been a traitor and a murderer all along. She is finally free to follow her own path. But on the dark side, she feels more lost than ever.
There are only two dogs she knows will never give up on her—Arrow, her fellow Fierce Dog, and his mate, Bella. To find them, Storm must fight through longpaw dangers, Leashed Dogs, and an unknown Pack of wolves, all in search of a place where she might finally belong.

The Final Battle[]

The time has come for a traitor to fall.
Storm has discovered the identity of the traitor dog who was sabotaging her former Pack—but when she returned from her exile, she fell right into the Traitor Dog’s waiting trap. Now a prisoner in the Wild Pack’s camp, Storm is running out of time, it was only a matter of time until the Traitor Dog made its next move. This is her last chance to save the Pack… And to put an end to what this traitor began.
